ive been searching all day and finally decided to join a forum and ask because i cant seem to find my answer. im starting my SW tank for the first time and im in the curing proses. i have a bunch of base rock in the tank with about 60lbs of live sand and 20lbs of plain sand. but my question is do i need to buy live rock to put in the tank to turn the base rock live? or are there other ways to get live rock from base rock without buying rock thats already live?
ive been reading about puting raw shrinp in and letting them rot to get the bactiria going, but do i still need live rock along with it? or will the base rock start to "grow" on its own from the rotted shrimp?
hope all that makes sence
